12 I did try the plain revdep-rebuild first and it showed nothing to be
13 done. What was interesting (at least to me) was that ldd was showing the
14 libnss3.so.12 twice, once found and the other not found.

16 The explanation is that after upgrading to nss-2.12.4, the soname in the
17 library changed from libssl3.so.12 to just libssl.so, so the loader (and
18 ldd) did not use it to resolve the dependency on libssl3.so.12 in the
19 applications. Bug https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=285062
20 explains it in more detail.
